County Going Ahead


With Roofing Work


Mostly routine business and
discussion was on the agenda of
the meeting of the Gulf County
Commission Tuesday night.
Two items of general interest
were discussion of possible en-
try into the waste disposal pro-
gram by the county and a deci-
sion to proceed with repairs to
the roofs of the County's two
health department buildings and
the old courthouse in Wewahith-
ka.



Voters Begin to,

Register Today

The City's voter registration
books will open today for the
registration of qualified electors
prior to the Mar 11 primary.
The books are being opened
to register new voters or those
who have let their registration'
lapse due to failure to sign up
again during one of the City's
periodic re-registrations.
According to City Auditor and
Clerk Charles Brock, the books
will remain open during the en-
tire month of April and will be
opeii from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00
noon and 1:00 to 5:00 p.m., Mon-
day through Friday of each week
in the City Hall.
The City registers as electors,
persons 21 years of age who are
citizens of the United States who
have lived in the City of Port
St. 'Joe for the past six months.


Hughey Williams instigated,
the discussion concerning waste
disposal. Williams, who is in the
garbage collection business told
the Board he was contemplating
purchase of, some new equip-
ment but he would use some dis-
cretion if the county .was going
to be forced into the waste dis-
posal business by the govern-
ment.
Williams was mostly interest-
ed in disposal of solid wastes
such as old appliances, automo-
biles, etc. In the past, the county
las been concerned with the dis-
posal of 'only .domestic garbage
,and trash, using the land-fill me-
'thod.'
The Board said there was con-
siderable talk of this possibility
at a recent meeting of the State
Association of County Commis-
sioners, but that was all the Gulf
,County Board knew of the mat-
ter. They knew nothing of the
proposed service being manda-
tory, nor were they planning to
get into the business.
After about two months of dis-
cussion at every meeting, the
Board agreed Tuesday to go
ahead with repairs to the roofs
of the Health Department build-
ings and the old Courthouse
in Wewahitchka, using County
labor to do the jobs.
Chairman S. C. Player instruct-
ed Mosquito Control supervisor
C. E. Daniell to survey the build-
ings and draw up a list of ma-
terials which will be needed for
the repairs.


puts in one package all the ques-
'tions prospective industry ask
of a' community.
Freeman credited Florida Pow-
er Corporation for much of the
work on the brochure.
Freeman reported that the'
Chamber had made a "half a doz-
en" good contacts during the
past year". 'Any one of these
could bear fruit in the future"
he said.
Freeman paid .tribute to 'the>
three, retiring directors,. R. H.
Ellzey, Frank. McDonald and
Bob Fox. for their past three
years of effective service for the
Chamber.
Thompson Installed
New president, Wesley Thomp-
son took over the leadership of
the organization at the close of
Tuesday night's meeting and
promised a year of activity for
the Chamber and its members.
"We're going to do something",
he said.
Thompson was very brief in
his remarks in which he expres-
sed a concern for the future
growth of the area and its needs.

St' Joe Paper:/Cmpany presi-
dent, J. C. Belin, said this week.
that because of a decline in the
demand for paperboard products
and because of the excess build-
up of paperboard inventories
throughout the Uited States it
was .necessary for the local firm
to reduce its work force in the
paper mill here in' the city. The
first *of a perinanent lay-off of
approximately 30- paper mill em-
ployees in the local plant took
place several days ago. According
to', Belin, a continued study of
plant personnel .iPny lead to an
additional reduction in the local
work force.
Belin stated there appears to'

economy as it may affect paper-

Board of Air and Water Pollution and told to put
in the dust-collecting device. Basic officials say
the new installation should be completed by
June of this year.

Actions by the company, in re-

Share With The Less Fortunate


For years the greatest fear in a, man's life was to be
.poor. It was about the worst, thing that could happen.
But gradually that', changing. In fact, nowadays, you
can get subsidized housing, health and dental, care, uni-
versity scholarships and various other welfare Jenefits,
provided you're poor enough. All you need to enjoy many
:of the advantages of life is proof that you are disadvant-
aged.
Nobody can complain about that It's human and
kind. However, in curing poverty, society has created
another problem group. And that's the middle class.
Nobody wants to'be middle class. anymore because the
middle class has an awkward amount of money-too much
to be eligible to live as well as the poor, too little to live
as well as the rich. The middle class wage earner is caught
in between..
stead of living downtown (like the rich and the
,poor) the poor sap has to buy a crummy lot 35 'iles
from town because that's all he can afford. And then he
spends the rest of his life trying to pay his bills, educate.
Sthe kids and meet the mortgage because nobody will help
him out. If poverty gets any more attractive, this is the
sort of thing we may run into at the office:
"Mr. Goodie, I wonder fI could speak to you for a
minute?" "
"What is it,. Smedley? I'm busy."
"It's about my salary,' Mr. Goodie. I wonder if you
could give me a decrease. I know, sir. I wouldn't ask
if it wasn't important, but I sure could use less money."



Gulf At

According. to testimony made recently by Auditor
General Ernest Ellion of the State Comptroller's office,
Gulf County has had the largest increase in its assessed
valuation against real and,personal property of any coun-
ty in the State of Florida.
According to Ellison's report, Gulf's valuation as com-
pared with actual cash value has increased 14 percent to
83 per cent of actual cash value last year. While state
law calls for 100 percent of cash value be assessed against
property for taxing purposes, we would suspect that Gulf's
abrupt increase has also placed the county near the top
in, true value assessments. -
Although the taxes aren't easy to pay, we aren't belly-
aching at their present value, even though we do consider
that this high valuation, puts Gulf at a certain disadvan-
tage insofar as attracting new industry to the county is
concerned. We will have plenty of company in our belly-
aching should the valuation-and the taxes-go higher
than they presently are.
It's getting close to budget time for the various po-
litical subdivisions in Gulf County including the county,
the school board and the two municipalities. By the end
of Jhly, all of these:various budgets are usually pretty well
set for the coming year.
The City of Port St. Joe still has nearly' three mills

"What size decrease did you have in mind?"
"I was hoping for a $25 cut in salary."
"Twenty-five dollars! That's a big slice, Smedley.-
What have you done to merit it?"
"I've worked for the company 23 years, Mr. Goodie.
And I've never let you down. My work has always been
up to standard."
"I realize that, Simedley. But $25! Wouldn't you be
satisfied with a $15 cut? We have a budget problem right
now. We're already below last year's salary figure. And
I hear the union is furious, tax-wise."
"Mr. Goodie, a $15 cutback is better ,than nothing,
but my wife and I had our hearts set on a $25 decrease,"
"How about $20?"
"If I made $25 less, we'd be eligible for an apart-
ment in the city's new development, the one downtown
with a pool, sauna and tennis court. Besides, my son
would qualify for a government scholarship, and we
would get 1is teeth fixed."
"You drive, a hard bargain, Smedley. But you win.
You get your $25 decrease on this condition: If your
work slips, you'll take a $10 raise, no questions asked."
"Bless you, Mr. Goodie."

The Top

to)play with in its 10-mill ceiling set by the state. Even
though the city faces major expenditures in the next few
years getting certain programs accomplished, such as the
new sewage disposal plant, the City is getting along fairly
well on what it is presently collecting-in taxes.'
Trhe county and the school board are two other mat-
ters, entirely. Both are at or over their 10-mill cap and
both faced with requests for'more money. The only way
more money will be available is for an increase in property
valuations; which we have already been told are near the
highest in the state.
Both these bodies are regular targets of requests
which will require more money tax money. As a "for
instance", the County Commission can already see the re-
quests being shaped up to provide private secretarial help
for Civil Defense, the Veteran's Service officer and various
other small departments in county government. What
they may have to wind up doing is to combine all these
small departments under one supervisor with one secre-
tary who could easily do all the work necessary.
This isn't advocating such a move, it is just to point
out that many requests are coming. all perfectly valid
requests in the eyes of the one making them.
Mr. Ellison has already told us our "money well"
is practically full. Let's not run it over.


who made house calls driving
many miles by horse and buggy
through sleet, Fain, snow and
flood to serve his patients is no
more.
Few doctors today will make
house calls. Many of them make
no call over the weekend. Their
offices are closed from Friday
to Monday. This practice, or lack
of it, has. placed a tremendous
buraon on hospital emergency


service. As one hospital official
states, "We have simply become
a substitute for the family doc-
tor." To make it worse a large
percentage of these so-called
emergencies are not really emer-
gencies but result from hysteri-
cal parents and others who rush
to the hospital with a cut finger,
sprained ankle or bruised knee.
It may surprise you to know
that there are many communities

Dies In Lake City

Homer Philyaw, Sr., age 76, for-
merly of Port St. Joe, died Mon-
day of this week in Lake City.
Philyaw is a retired time-keeper
of St. Joe Paper Company.
He is survived by his widow,
Maye Belle; three sons, H. C., Jr.,
of New York; James of Apalachi-
cola and George of Titusville;
three daughters, Mrs. Ed Wright,
Jr., of Ormond Beach, Mrs. Donald

in the United States that have
no doctor available at anytime.
Residents of these doctorless
areas must drive miles to find
a doctor or emergency service.
Texas, for example, lists 15 such
communities. !
Another problem is specializa-
tion. The general practitioner
may see you but' he doesn't,.-
treat you. He refers you to a
specialist; a heart man, a nose
and throat man, a bone man,' an
ear man, or what have you. For
attention to your problem, you
must then travel many miles to
find the specialist who can help
you.
A study by the Brookings In.
stitute indicates that by 1975,
due to the pressure of Medicare,
Medicaid and the population ex-
plosion, Americans will require
one billion doctor visits. There
simply will not be enough medi-
cal manpower to ineet our needs.
In short, American Medicine,'
once the pride of our nation and
freely available to everyone, is
swiftly degenerating into a pro-
duction line affair, and all in-
dications is that the situation
will get worse. Survey after sur-
vey indicates that the present
trend will get much worse before
it gets better. Reviewing the si-
tuation, the Carnegie Commis-
sion, sees America confronted by
a "massive crisis."
While e' legislators concern
themselves over the plight of the
poor and underpriviledged, they
have lost sight of their more af-
fluent constituents who are suf-
fering equally from high medical
costs. But the situation finds
them forced on relief and wel-
fare despite their honest effort
to avoid it.


--THE


Etaoin

Shrdlu
by WESLEY R. RAMSEY


There's always two things which will catch up to
you your sins and your errors. Last week we made
the mistake of putting a label on our daughter Catherine's
horse, when we really didn't know what breed or class it
was. We labeled it a "Tennessee Walker, or Trotter or
something like that".
Horse expert David Rich corrected (or rather en-
lightened) us Thursday afternoon by sagely informing
us that the horse was a quarter, horse. You could have
fooled me ... it looks like a whole horse to me.


Senator William Proxmire and his buddies pushed
$864 million of our tax dollars down the drain last week
"for the sake of ecology". $864 million that's almost
a billion dollars and of course you aren't really talking
money, anymore unless you are talking in the billions.
Millions are just used for change.
Proxmire and his buddies succeeded in killing the 4
SST airplane. They claimed that it would be a potential"
danger to the ecology.
I never planned on riding the SST, but it has usually .
,proven true with experiments of this kind, that the so-
called "spin off" of new products and technical knowledge
usually justifies the expenditure, whether or not the prime
target is met.
We'd really like to know how Mr. Proxmire and his
troops are going to keep the Russians and the French
from continuing with their faster-than-4ound aircraft.
They, too, are working on such a machine and if the SST
would be-foul the atmosphere and the decibels around us
the Russian and French versions of the SST will surely
do so too. How are you going to stop them, Senator?
What are you going to do when the U. S. gets behind in
speedy bombers? Will you then vote a crash program
to spend twice the money now needed to continue the
SST development?

I enjoyed a visit last week from a group of visiting
foreign foresters and soil chemists who visited the St. Joe
Paper Company pine tree fertilization experimental plot
near Port St. Joe last Tuesday. The visitors, from Nor-
way, Sweden, Finland, Nigeria, South Africa, Vietnam,
and all the Commonwealth countries were escorted by
people from the University of Florida. They were interl-0
ested in our pine production in Gulf County and they
were interesting to listen to and watch.
One forester from Ireland told me he had witnessed
the planting of the millionth acre in pines in Florida a
few days before. "That's the target 'for our entire coun-
try", he said, "a million acres in planted pines."

Ssur'e that the seed is from a N-
Scytoplasm, double cross hybrid
S'such as Coker 71, Coker 67,
~'unk's 795W or Pioneer 511A.
: The seed should be treated
with a fungicide prior to plant-
ing for control of soil-borne fun-
|gi( that can cause seedling di-
:seases.
If the farmer decides to use
F2 seed, realizing that yields
will be lower than for a hybrid,
he should/get his seed from a
reputable seed dealer to be sure
of seed origin.
Open-pollinated varieties were
largely replaced 15 to 20 years
ago by higher-yielding hybrids,
had fewer lodging problems and
were usually more disease resis-
tant. Most of these varieties
should be blight resistant and
are an alternative for 1971. How-
ever, those varieties that have
been tested in Florida recently
have yielded only about half as
much as the better hybrids, the
agronomists say .
1The flint hybrids now being
marketed in Florida are widely
grown in Argentina, but have not
been evaluated in trials at the
University of Florida. These hy-
brids were not bred for and have
not been previously grown in
humid areas such as Florida, so
little information is available re-
garding their yield or resistance
to stalk rots or insects under
our conditions. Flint corn pro-
duces an extremely hard grain
that requires grinding before
feeding to certain classes of live-
stock.

Sorority Helping

In Area Drive
Xi Epsilon Kappa chapter of
Beta Sigma Phi has taken it upon
themselves to help out in a pro-
ject to get a kidney dialysis ma-
1chine for Tallahassee Memorial
Hospital to serve residents in
North Florida, South Georgia and
Alabama, according to Mrs. Mar-
garet Biggs, service chairman for
the sorority.
The kidney dialysis machine is
life for those suffering from in-
curable kidney diseases. The near-
est machine to this area is in
Gainesville and it doesn't have
enough free time to take care of
all the patients needing its ser-
vices. The club is doing its bit to
help secure a machine for this
area to serve the need that exists.
The machine will be secured
by collecting Betty Crocker cou-
pons. The Sorority is trying to
collect 150,000 of these coupons
by May 31, of this year. Other
clubs throughout the area are also
working on the project.
The Sorority is calling on any-
one in the Port St.' Joe area who
will, to donate their coupons to
this cause. Coupons may be sent
to Mrs. Margaret Biggs, P. 0. Box
551, Port St. Joe, Florida, or send
them to Mrs. Biggs at the Port St.

It's Spring!

Spring brings new life and makes one think of baby lambs,
calves and, of course, colts. The spirit of Spring was emphasized
in Port St. Joe Saturday morning by the birth of this baby colt
at Carl Lee Williamson's Stables at the Lion's Club Horse Arena.
The mama, White Bo-Til and colt, Poko-Til, are owned by Catherine
Ramsey. The sire is Poko Nippy of Tallahassee.

The controversial tax ratio stu-
dy mandated by the 1969 legis-
lature brought Florida counties
an average two per cent closer
to standard tax assessment, Au-
ditor General Ernest Ellison tes-
tified last week.
Ellison told a Circuit Court
hearing there were some notable
exceptions to the trend.
The testimony came in a suit
filed by several counties which
would lose state school funds as
a result of the ratio study. Elli-
son is a' co-defendant in the suit
and was called at first witness
for the plaintiffs.
Ellison said assessments in
Gulf County were 69 per cent
of true value when the study be-
gan, and rose abruptly to 83 per
cent last year. He said this 14
per cent gain was caused by fig-
uring personal property such as
trucks and machinery into the
tax base along with real estate.
He said the Gulf County in-
crease was the highest in the
state, followed by 11'per cent
increases in Wakulla and Taylor

counties, where the ratios were
40 and 68 per cent, respectively.
The purpose of the 1969 study
was to determine which school
districts were under-assessing
property values and which were
over-assessing, so that minimum
foundation school support could


be geared accordingly.
The plan was to reduce state
funds to counties found to be
under-assessing, proportionate to
their under-assessment, while
increasing state funding to coun-
ties over assessing.
